In the following we would like to familiarise
you with the appliance and provide some
useful information about epilation. Please
read the use instructions carefully and
thoroughly before using the appliance.
Braun Silk·épil EverSoft has been designed
to make the removal of unwanted hair as
efficient, gentle and easy as possible. Its
proven epilation system removes your hair
at the root, leaving your skin smooth for
weeks.
The high-precision epilation head
1 with
its unique arrangement of tweezers and
the integrated feed-in geometry ensures
an efficient epilation and removes even
hair as short as 0.5 mm at the root. As the
hair that re-grows is fine and soft, there
will be no more stubble.
Important
For hygienic reasons, do not share this
appliance with other persons.
This appliance must never be used
near water (e.g. a filled wash basin,
bathtub or shower).
Keep the appliance out of the reach of
children.
When switched on, the appliance must
never come in contact with the hair on
your head, eyelashes, ribbons, etc. to
prevent any danger of injury as well as
to prevent blockage or damage to the
appliance.
General information on epilation
Silk·épil is designed to remove hair on
legs, but it can also be used on all sensi-
tive areas like forearms, the underarm or
the bikini line.
All methods of hair removal at the root can
lead to in-growing hair and irritation (e.g.
itching, discomfort or reddening of the
skin), depending on the condition of the
skin and hair.
This is a normal reaction and should
quickly disappear, but may be stronger
when you are removing hair at the root for
the first few times or if you have sensitive
skin.
If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows
irritation, we recommend that you con-
tact your physician.
In general, the skin reaction and the
sensation of pain tend to diminish
considerably with the repeated use of
Silk·épil.
In some cases inflammation of the skin
could occur when bacteria penetrate
the skin (e.g. when sliding the appliance
over the skin). Thorough cleaning of the
epilation head before each use will
minimise the risk of infection.
If you have any doubts about using this
appliance, please consult your physician.
In the following cases, this appliance
should only be used after prior consul-
tation with a physician:
eczema, wounds, inflamed skin
reactions such as folliculitis (purulent
hair follicles) and varicose veins
around moles
reduced immunity of the skin, e.g.
diabetes mellitus, during pregnancy,
Raynaud’s disease
haemophilia or immune deficiency.
Some useful tips
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length of
2–5 mm (0.08–0.2 in.) If hairs are longer,
we recommend to pre-cut to this length.
When epilating for the first time, it is
advisable to epilate in the evening, so that
any possible reddening can disappear
overnight. To relax the skin we recommend
applying a moisture cream after epilation.
Fine hair which re-grows might not grow
up to the skin surface. The regular use of

massage sponges (e.g. after showering)
or exfoliation peelings helps to prevent in-
growing hair as the gentle scrubbing
action removes the upper skin layer and
fine hair can get through to the skin
surface.

For optimum performance hold the
appliance at a right angle (90°) against
your skin. Guide it in a slow, continuous
movement without pressure against
the hair growth, in the direction of the
switch.
3 Leg epilation
Epilate your legs from the lower leg in
an upward direction. When epilating
behind the knee, keep the leg stretched
out straight.
4 Underarm and bikini line epilation
Use tests monitored by dermatolo-
gists have revealed that you can also
epilate the underarm and the bikini line.
Please be aware that these areas are
particularly sensitive to pain. With
repeated usage the pain sensation will
diminish.
Before epilating, thoroughly clean the
respective area to remove residue (like
deodorant). Then carefully dab dry with
a towel. When epilating the underarm,
keep your arm raised up and guide the
appliance in different directions.
Cleaning the epilation head
5 After epilating, unplug the appliance
and clean the epilation head.

with the cleaning brush and also with
alcohol. While cleaning, you can turn
the tweezer element manually. To re-

release buttons
